Stylish single‑storey living meets generous outdoor space in this recently renovated five‑bedroom bungalow set on about 0.49 acres. The current owners have refurbished the property throughout, creating bright, flexible rooms including an open‑plan kitchen/breakfast/family area, cosy snug, useful study and a garden room that gives a holiday‑feel to the grounds. The layout suits multi‑generational living or a family wanting all accommodation on one level.
Practical features include an attached garage, cart lodge, workshop and garden store, a long gravel driveway and double glazing. Heating is oil‑fired with a combination of radiators and underfloor heating; this delivers comfort but means reliance on oil as the primary fuel. Council tax is above average for the area and should be factored into running costs.
The house was originally built in the 1960s and benefits from cavity wall insulation and internal insulation upgrades; despite the comprehensive renovation, buyers may wish to personalise finishes or adapt rooms for ancillary accommodation if required. The setting is peaceful — rural hamlet location with strong mobile and fast broadband — and local schools rated Outstanding/Good are within easy reach, making this a practical family base with countryside appeal.
Overall this is a well‑presented, spacious detached bungalow on a large plot that balances immediate move‑in condition with scope for further tailoring. Important considerations are the oil heating system and higher council tax banding; otherwise the property represents rare single‑storey living with substantial outdoor space and flexible accommodation.
